Playing with planties: How to train a "Fleche "😈

[kaptain3d]

Good day Legends

In this journal, I will detail how to train a plant in the “Fleche” style.
I dubbed this style Fleche because it means Arrow in French and it’s a technique @Arrow shared with me a few years ago, and because the plant will have an arrowhead shape for a while.

I hope you’ll enjoy the journey

For this adventure, I will start with a White Truffle from ILGM. It will be entered in the grow off, but I will post a lot more pictures and details here.

I’ll use some gardening and bonsai wires plus some wooden meat skewers to bound the subjects…

So, Tuesday night I received the seeds and immediately soaked two of them.

And tonight (Thursday) the seeds had cracked open so I put them in Solo cups.

Now the waiting game begins.

@Olaf.ILGM , @thisis40 , @Mntmannw , this is where I’ll do the deed

Good morning @Covertgrower and friends!

@Covertgrower

watching…

I must say at first I was freaked out by those “droplets”… I was wondering what kind of pervert you were… Then I realized it was sweat…

I wish you all a magnificent day Legends!

Thanks @kaptain3d for mentioning @Arrow to me a couple of weeks ago. I been reading his topic, Arrow’s labour of love. and it’s a good read.. And I see the student has become the master.

@madhatter1

And I see the student has become the master.

Those are big shoes to fill following @Arrow The Plant Whisperer…
I’d say that whatever useful tidbits of info you gain here will come from Arrow’s teaching.
I’m far from a master, but I’m not scared to try different training methods anymore! As he would say: It’s all a labour of love!

@kaptain3d

I’m far from a master

Well you’re certainly not far from it my friend. Now let the magic show begin.
